"So, what do we do with him?"
Ming asked Ryker as they stood in front of the unconscious body of their attacker.
"Honestly, I want to kill him." He paused then scanned Kinkaid. 'He's about my age. We're of the same age, yet he's way beyond my league... For now.'
"He has a higher rank than that witch. Meaning, he'll have more information than she ever has, we'll take him to Zera once our bastard of a captain returns."
Ming silently looks at Ryker.
The ex-hunter felt uneasy over the stare and glares at her.
"What?" He asked taking a deep breath.
